McDonough District Hospital issued the following announcement on July 13.

The McDonough Medical Group’s Ear, Nose and Throat clinic has added an Allergy clinic for new and existing patients. Monday (July 16) is the first day patients can call to schedule an allergy appointment.

The Ear, Nose and Throat staff of Jeffrey Sparks, D.O. and Kamie McKee, NP-C are accepting allergy patients ages 10 and older. Both Sparks and McKee recently attended a national allergy education course to learn more on the latest treatments.

“We are excited to offer this new service to the residents of west-central Illinois. This service has not been readily available to area residents in the past,” said Dr. Sparks. “We offer allergy testing and immunotherapy treatments for people suffering from allergies on a daily basis.”

To make an appointment, call the MDH Ear, Nose and Throat clinic at (309) 833-6937.
